Title: Masters train, both As facing the same direction in Augusta
Post by: D300 on April 09, 2011, 03:20:25 PM
Guys,

A photo showed up on RP that shows this year's Masters Train sitting in Augusta in two sections with an A-B on the front of each section. The interesting part is both A units are now facing the same direction. One A or an A-B set was turned. Is this standard practice simply to make things look more pleasing or is this out of the norm?

Seems a little much to expect the units to be turned just for looks. Do they have standby HEP in Augusta or do they need the HEP on the units to keep the train heated/cooled?
